[hoary kernel]

🥹

[bright scroll]

only time i would ever take astronomer

[bright scroll]

you have cryptid which is a better dna

unless you were referring to trading card

[floral lily]

does mime retrigger baron

[hoary kernel]

get a load of this guy not scaling his planets

[hoary kernel]

yes

[bright scroll]

😔

[timber minnow]

its always the plant

[bright scroll]

[hoary kernel]

[floral lily]

[timber minnow]

[bright scroll]

do you need trading card

[hoary kernel]

i mean i would like to keep using it

im not done deck fixing as of now

but i could sell it

[slim junco]

Hell no not the plant

[bright scroll]

yeah probably chad i would say

[slim junco]

The worst one was when u could only play 1 hand

[hoary kernel]

yeah
if it copies hiker or something i can probably refind it

[floral lily]

chad is lowkey chad

[bright scroll]

are you saying the needle is worse than the plant

[slim junco]

and for example you go flush and next discard are randomized shyt

[slim junco]

No

[hoary kernel]

eh not bad

[warm mirage]

Them near misses are a lot funnier when you just win regardless due to having Papyrus UNDERTALE Mr. Bones as the first Joker you bought 🤭

[hoary kernel]

i dont even need chad anymore

lol

[warm mirage]

Which was disabled on hands 1 and 3, but not 4, thankfully, lol.

Hello, my Balatro has stopped running completely. When I launch it from Steam it says "Running" for a few seconds but nothing launches, and eventually the button changes back to "Play". I had installed some mods, but have deleted both the Game Files and AppData folders, reinstalled the game, and it still won't launch. It was working perfectly yesterday and I don't think I changed anything. I tried turning off Steam Cloud as well (because it kept reloading all the mod files into my AppData folder) but that didn't help. Anything else I can try?
On Windows 11, by the way

[brisk zinc]

Just seen some blueprint x brainstorm yuri on facebook...

[lone vault]

introduced my dad to balatro and he got baron, mime, and DNA and he’s doing good on fucking ante 7

[lost furnace]

normal

[vale fog]

bime combo in first runs real

bro's gonna naneinf without even trying

(exaggeration)

[sleek plinth]

This Tarot Pack just said "What Suit do you want? Or if you can't decide, let's gamble!"

[unreal aurora]

Hi everybody! My name's Haven. We're a plural system of three and love games of all kinds, and have dreams of creating my own games someday. Today's also my birthday! 28 fucking years holy shit

I got Balatro a week ago and I'm already 53 hours deep into this masterpiece and with no end in sight. As somebody who loved playing card games as a child (Windows Spider Solitaire, anyone?) this game scratches a part of my soul that hasn't been scratched in decades

Hope we find a nice new home around here 🤗

[main mural]

What the hell is Jimbo doing in Cyberpunk? 🤔

[unreal aurora]

Wait I never noticed I just got finished with my second CP2077 playthrough 🤔

[gilded patio]

Guys would this be a good suggestion to my gambling alcoholic dad

[main mural]

Depends

[gilded patio]

On whay

What

[tribal beacon]

Shared account?

[quiet junco]

Bruh.

[unreal aurora]

No a system is like, what used to be called multiple personality disorder

[unreal aurora]

Honestly if he's addicted to balatro that's time spent not drinking or gambling, I say go for it

[tribal beacon]

Oooooh,Nice to meet you all 3.

[gilded patio]

Who are the other 2?

[unreal aurora]

Same to you! - Aura

-# this server doesn't happen to have pluralkit, does it? - Links

[tribal beacon]

What is that?

[unreal aurora]

A bot that lets all three of us talk as each other, it's fine though because they have their own accounts so they'll just join later

[slim junco]

Blackboard and campfire are so good

[unreal aurora]

There's so much I can learn about this game here, I guess firstly I'll ask, how does one make campfire work?

Do you just buy whatever you can and sell at the start of the round?

[errant beacon]

[unreal aurora]

Is that a come-out post? :3

[errant beacon]

[errant beacon]

neither confirming nor denying :3

[modern fable]

[unreal aurora]

It's okay it took a long time for me to realize I was nb and then even longer to realize I wanted to be born a girl

I kinda dig the nb vibe so I just call myself femmby

[late ibex]

regarding Campfire - have you established a per-bliind economy for it?

at lower stakes, it's a win more card, but if you have a strong economy it can be leveraged

[unreal aurora]

✍️

This is just a heuristic game tbh

[lost furnace]

camfpire good with ceremonil dagger and redcard

[obsidian sphinx]

or

[unreal aurora]

oops sorry that was an accident

[vale fog]

odd todd cuz it works with 7s

[lost furnace]

chips

[obsidian sphinx]

odd todd cause he's odd just like me fr fr

[errant beacon]

when i’m not playing balatro i’m watching someone else play

[unreal aurora]

I guess I'll share my current strat. So far I've beaten red blind

I find my first permanent jokers, and try to build around that

If it takes too long to find good jokers, I start leveling hands with planets and stacking my deck

So far it's worked a bit

The thing that messes me up is that I'm never too sure how to utilize planets because it seems like eventually the scaling falls off hard

[errant beacon]

…i’ve figured out i’m around a month ago

[late ibex]

that's because they do

so like it comes down to goals

which number do you want to go up?

stakes number?

chips number?

[unreal aurora]

I've been watching Northernlion play it while playing it 💀

[obsidian sphinx]

[gusty agate]

Guys I need help

[unreal aurora]

I mean preferrably I want chip number go big

[late ibex]

then i think you should focus on early game economy

[gusty agate]

Scary or smiley here?

[obsidian sphinx]

im terribly addicted to balatro and the binding of issac and it is a dangerous combination

[late ibex]

looks like smiley

[near horizon]

Which deck

[late ibex]

smiley until chat

chad

[gusty agate]

Yellow, start with $10

[gusty agate]

Yeah I’ve been waiting for chad, ante 10/8 😭

[near horizon]

Then smiley

[gusty agate]

Okay thank you both 🙏

[bright scroll]

credit card in the buffoon pack

[unreal aurora]

Oh yeah I definitely try to get money asap

[late ibex]

are you familiar with Balatro University?

the Professor redefined Balatro for me

[unreal aurora]

When should you use planets/tarot, whenever you can afford it?

No I've mostly just been watching Northernlion and learning tricks from him

I'll check them out :D

[late ibex]

lol

[obsidian sphinx]

balatro university has some guides but ngl i cant sit down and watch that stuff for 2 hours

[late ibex]

i think the best thing to learn from Northernlion is what not ot do?

[unreal aurora]

But what he does works sometimes!

LOL

I learned how to play gungeon from him too

[unreal aurora]

Yeah I have ADHD powers

[late ibex]

Balatro University breaks down the fundamentals of good decision-making for Balatro

[unreal aurora]

"powers"

[gusty agate]

Literally just got chad in my next shop

Finally

[late ibex]

see? problem solved

[gusty agate]

Chad at the start right?

[late ibex]

yeah

to trigger and retrigger the photo

[gusty agate]

Thanks

[patent flame]

Play pairs

[unreal aurora]

I've noticed a lot of heuristics I use when I play chess apply to Balatro in similar ways too. Thanks for the recc I'll check them out for sure

[obsidian sphinx]

tbh though i feel like his guides are terribly drawn out sometimes, like 10 billion examples for how to play a good hand early game and while that is cool it is just excritiatingly boring and im not really learning stuff

[agile pawn]

congrats

[patent flame]

This is so real

[unreal aurora]

That's what I love tbh

[patent flame]

Doc has great content but I don't have good enough attention for it

I'm sorry

[late ibex]

aint nothing wrong with your own opinion

[patent flame]

But I'm surprised how crazy his thinking process is during highscore runs

[obsidian sphinx]

the guy has a math degree

[patent flame]

He doesn't take baron early in his baron runs

When he finds it

[late ibex]

yeah, because he needs the muhney

[patent flame]

He uses the entirety of 8 antes to find money

Like wtf

I can never bro

[late ibex]

it's econ bro

[patent flame]

1k before ante 8

That is literally fucking skill

[errant beacon]

smiley i think cause of the photograph

[late ibex]

get the econ? unlock all the doors

[unreal aurora]

Does anybody else keep checking their deck and discard the cards you're least likely to get a hand for ?

That feels pretty strong

[patent flame]

He has PhD in maths

[errant beacon]

…3rd transfem luna i have spotted

[patent flame]

Bro

[late ibex]

@unreal aurora eventually you'll start to mentally lock in stats for expected draws

but when you refine economy, probability doesn't matter anymore

[obsidian sphinx]

ig i think im past early game for balatro i need guides for mid-late antes

[agile pawn]

believe it or not luna is my birth name

[late ibex]

best guide for mid-late?

[unreal aurora]

Appreciate the tips!

[late ibex]

make good decisions early

[unreal aurora]

Is there any real downside to skipping?

[obsidian sphinx]

then my question is how tf do i know im making a good decision LMAO

[unreal aurora]

Like besides no shop opportunity or extra money, some tags seem WAY better than that though

[late ibex]

you learn by playing more and reading more and watching more and calculating more

[obsidian sphinx]

grrr i hate math

[unreal aurora]

If your multiplier/chip counters aren't on fire you're doing something wrong

[late ibex]

i am horrifically bad at math

but balatro makes me believe

[obsidian sphinx]

if i had the patientce to sit down and watch 2 hour long balatro runs id be so good fr

[late ibex]

you don't need to watch the whole run

[errant beacon]

heck yeah

[obsidian sphinx]

?

[late ibex]

just break it up in chunks

or look for the decisions that set up the long end of the run

[obsidian sphinx]

ooooohhh

[late ibex]

if you watch The Professor maxout the antes

it's literally the same plays over and over

that's not the interesting part

it's getting to a place by making correct decisions that makes it interesting

and that's usually done in the first 1-8 antes

[obsidian sphinx]

solid point, i will get to doing that eventualy, probably...

[late ibex]

the big ones to pick up are things like shop mechanics

holding stuff so that other stuff has a better chance to pop in boosters

[unreal aurora]

So what are the funni emojis you guys use?

[late ibex]

i'm too old for emojis

[unreal aurora]

If you're older than me I understand but I'm 28 and use them xd

[obsidian sphinx]

i was going to demonstrate but i just lost my nitro

[unreal aurora]

[late ibex]

i'm not saying you shouldn't 😄 just that i don't 😄

[unreal aurora]

True and real

Bumbo want coin

[obsidian sphinx]

i love bumbo, the older design is better tbh

[last sedge]

guys i just broke up with my gf what deck should i play to forget the pain

[tardy mica]

• chomps on your pancreus in clownese*

[obsidian sphinx]

download cryptid and drown yourself in numbers

[last sedge]

i tried cryptid but lowkey it was so overwhelming

[tardy mica]

the money one , yellow

[obsidian sphinx]

fair enough, just do checkered deck

[brisk zinc]

Black deck because you have one less hand in your life

I'm sorry that was insensitive

[last sedge]

i had to break up with her cause i’m moving away and our lives aren’t compatible anymore so i have to also cope with the fact we didn’t have a bad breakup (somehow worse) 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[brisk zinc]

Hope you get over it 🫂

[late ibex]

red deck because you discarded to pick up something better

[last sedge]

ok this is kinda fire

[obsidian sphinx]

absolutely devious work wtf

[last sedge]

I DIDNT THOUGU 😭

[late ibex]

then rebuild your hand by being discarded

[unreal aurora]

I tend to make dark jokes like that but I believe humor is the best medicine

[tardy mica]

id smash djungelskog

[last sedge]

it’s worse when it’s not anyone’s fault and it’s literally just life dawg

[unreal aurora]

Who's djungelskog?

[tardy mica]

the ikea bear

[unreal aurora]

I don't judge

[last sedge]

i have a djungelskog

because my ex gf is swedish

everything reminds me of her……

[tardy mica]

sorry

sorry

sorry

i didnt mean to trigger you

[last sedge]

LMAO you’re fine

[tardy mica]

sorry

[last sedge]

i’m just joking around

humour is a good way to cope

[tardy mica]

oh

[obsidian sphinx]

the im sorry disease

[tardy mica]

sorry

i dint know you were messing

sorry

[last sedge]

might play plasma deck to get some balance in my life for once 😫

also what happened to thunk chat

[tardy mica]

can someone help me try beat the yellow one

[obsidian sphinx]

[warm aurora]

Is matador disabled during the tooth?

[last sedge]

don’t spend all your money on the first shop

[warm aurora]

I didn't get but a single dollar

[tardy mica]

never do

[last sedge]

yeah matador only works with certain boss blinds and it’s confusing which is why he’s getting a rework

[warm aurora]

Cringe

[unreal aurora]

This server's wild 😭

I like that

[obsidian sphinx]

fr yall are hilarious

[warm aurora]

Where's the wild :sob :

[quick cypress]

Hey, just a question, but can you make a low straight with an ace card?

[unreal aurora]

Yup

[late ibex]

yes

A2345

[quick cypress]

This could’ve won so many runs for me

[obsidian sphinx]

i had no idea you could do that

[quick cypress]

I thought the game wouldn’t allow that

[unreal aurora]

I forget it sometimes too don't worry

Nah that's poker rules

[quick cypress]

Despite in real life that’s allowed

[late ibex]

it's unfortunately that you can't wrap KA234

[unreal aurora]

Yeah seriously

There should be a joker that allows that

[last sedge]

shortcut should allow it

[obsidian sphinx]

now im imagining a joker that is also a rapper

[unreal aurora]

That'd make it too strong tbh

[quick cypress]

Poker chip
Allows any combination of a low straight that can happen
Or smth

[tardy mica]

whats the best deck for a face card run

[last sedge]

shortcut is my favourite support joker i love doing the rare royal flush build

[last sedge]

abandoned

[late ibex]

@tardy mica it's always plasma

[last sedge]

[tardy mica]

how do i get that

how do i get either

[unreal aurora]

I've spent more time with balatro open talking here than playing balatro 😭

[late ibex]

win with each different deck and it will unlock another deck

win on lowest stakes to unlock

[quick cypress]

Go gamble, some more mate

[tardy mica]

i cant

im ass

[quick cypress]

Yo, same

For me personally, I just pressed the unlock all button

[late ibex]

then practice until you can

[obsidian sphinx]

screw it, im gonna go try and win on green steak for the first time wish me like

[tardy mica]

im not a quitter

ive won with blue and red

[tame cedar]

You got this

If you got important decisions to make, we’re here to help

[quick cypress]

I have won once if that makes you feel greater

[slim junco]

is there any news at all on the next update yo

[last sedge]

y’all i want a pizza so bad but i’m broke i’m gonna go steal one

/j

don’t ban me for promoting stealing

[quick cypress]

I don’t think you’ll be banned for that

[obsidian sphinx]

AURGH

[strong garnet]

oof

[obsidian sphinx]

I am taking a break by touching grass

[lone vault]

my dad lost at round 21

boss on ante 7

my record is round 18

[last sedge]

i think the highest ante i ever got to was like 25 with a sock and trib glass poly red seal kings build

might have been higher i can’t remember

once you get into the e numbers it gets kinda repetitive though

still trying to get naneinf though

[obsidian sphinx]

well well well if it isnt who i was complementing earlier

[waxen trail]

Who wins with 8 ball?

[ripe sable]

only if it starts or ends with Ace

which is the joke of Superposition

ace and a straight, which is 10 J Q K A or A 2 3 4 5

[waxen trail]

Im witnessing a masterpiece

EGG

What if you wanted to go to heaven but god said

[cursive stirrup]

can you get steam achievements with mods that don't add any content?

[spare oasis]

I hate losing with good jokers

Feels like wasted potential

[stiff tartan]

balatro balatrez

[meager plank]

pop tart?

[meager plank]

Me when I lose with 24 plutos and perkeo but no observatory

[spare oasis]

🥀

[obsidian sphinx]

ok thats it im done with this game

[meager plank]

All particles no acceleration 💔

[gentle hollow]

Who up sockin their buskin?

[meager plank]

Who else buskin their sock

[gentle hollow]

Man I’m playing enter the gungeon rn were you the one that said to play this game I don’t remember

[unreal aurora]

I used to play it a ton!

From basically version 1.0 onward

[gentle hollow]

I’m on the second level but idk if I should open a gate to help two people or get chests

[unreal aurora]

Unlocks should be priority tbh

Don’t worry about dying due to lack of loot. Dying is part of the game

[gentle hollow]

Okay

[unreal aurora]

But try your hardest too

[gentle hollow]

Is there any other source of getting hearts other than enemies and the shop?

I’m on one

[unreal aurora]

There’s other sources of healing, you can also find hearts from secret rooms

[gentle hollow]

Okay thanks sm

[unreal aurora]

Feel free to Ping or dm if you have more questions :)

[gentle hollow]

Sorry just one last question how do you find secret rooms in the place?

[stiff tartan]

shoot the walls

[gentle hollow]

Okay thanks

[elfin tapir]

sometimes on mobile balatro the audio will glitch out

[unreal aurora]

Shoot the walls to reveal them. You need either explosives or blanks to open them

And the basic unlimited ammo weapons can’t reveal them

[tired mountain]

Haha lol I used wraith when in debt by like 17$ and it went up to 0

[elfin tapir]

nice

[tired mountain]

It was brainstorm too

[elfin tapir]

nicer

[lime mist]

alas, the boss blind has defeated me

[covert obsidian]

help I am spreading balatro to my friends

[elfin tapir]

where do you get these negative cards my good them

[elfin tapir]

give them the “trust me you’ll be hooked”

[lime mist]

your good what

[covert obsidian]

wow!

[elfin tapir]

well on the internet i cannot tell the gender of the person i am talking to

so instead of saying “my good sir/madam”

[zenith comet]

[covert obsidian]

you could just say my god

[elfin tapir]

that would be blasphemous

[covert obsidian]

I fucking hate obelisk

me when I'm just absolutely wrong

the way you use obelisk is my pumping one hand then pivoting to literally anything else

[covert obsidian]

too much thinking

[solemn elm]

I've had an obelisk win at gold stake where I had my highest at 4

[lime mist]

lmao nice

[solemn elm]

so the problem is you're stupid /j

[fierce plover]

Stupidest win ive ever gotten

[fierce plover]

ive always bern confused about obilisk

[zenith comet]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[solemn elm]

but you can make it quite far, but scaling Xmult doesn't get far in endless to begin with

stacking on-score / in-hand is how you get far in endless, not stacking flat Xmult

[zenith comet]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[solemn elm]

Then any hand resets

[solemn elm]

so then it doesn't really mean anything

that's like saying lucky cat is bad because you can't get far in endless with it

[fierce plover]

that just makes obolisk baf than right?

[solemn elm]

absolutely not

[obsidian sphinx]

spread the disease

[zenith comet]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[fierce plover]

It basically gives it a time limit
That means you cant get it too early or else you reach your tine limit soon and you cant get it too late or else it cant scale high enough

[shy dove]

why is worrying about what hand you play bad

[zenith comet]

[zenith comet]

[solemn elm]

anything but your highest

[obsidian sphinx]

this is hilarious

[solemn elm]

that's a whole lot of hands if you actually play obelisk right

[obsidian sphinx]

i cannot play obelisk for the life of me, its so hard for my brain to switch gears between the differrent suits and numbers and stuff

like my shapes/colors part of my brain is very seperated from the numbers part

[shy dove]

its not that hard ive never reset obelisk outside of when picking it up early and pivoting out of big hands

[zenith owl]

Hello

I am burger

[obsidian sphinx]

but tbh id like to have them be closer so balatro is helpin

[shy dove]

its easy to scale

[fierce plover]

How would you play it right?
/gen
Like lets say you got it ante 3 with 9 hands dispersed with the highest being full house with 3
wouldnt you only be able to take it for 15 hands or so

[shy dove]

you play hands that arent your most played hand

[elfin tapir]

TURN DOWN YOUR SCREEN SHAKE

[solemn elm]

God no what

[shy dove]

usually you go to like

[solemn elm]

you wouldn't start scaling obelisk there

[shy dove]

around 12-15 or so by like ante 4 or maybe 5

[solemn elm]

you'd want to get to 10+ on your highest, ideally

[shy dove]

and then you have

[elfin tapir]

obelisk is ass

[fierce plover]

ohhhhhh

that makes sense

[zenith comet]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[solemn elm]

Obelisk is a litmus test, which you failed

[solemn elm]

It absolutely does not

[shy dove]

12-15 high cards, 12-15 2 pairs, 12-15 flushes, 12-15 3oaks...

[solemn elm]

Mouth is worse than Eye with obelisk

[elfin tapir]

I’ll have you know I completely the obelisk challenge

[shy dove]

whats eye

[solemn elm]

High card is the worst hand for obelisk tbf

[shy dove]

one hand type?

[elfin tapir]

i made obelisk negative with ecto and completely ignored it but still

[solemn elm]

because you can be forced to play it

[elfin tapir]

i won with it

[shy dove]

no i mean

after playing 12-15 pairs

[fierce plover]

il still take lucky cat over obilisk any day

[solemn elm]

yeah

[shy dove]

you have 12-15 hcs you can play from there

[solemn elm]

Sometimes you don't get that choice

[zenith comet]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[solemn elm]

usually you don't actually

[fierce plover]

fair

[solemn elm]

Which isn't really a problem for obelisk.
Mouth is worse

[shy dove]

i mean theres easy hands i can play

[fierce plover]

i Mostly just play white stake tho still a baby

[zenith comet]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[solemn elm]

Because you can be forced to reset by playing the same hand multiple times

if i gotta get really close but not win on another jokerless run i am actually going to club the nearest person with a 3 of clubs

[solemn elm]

if you play a hand as a throwaway, that's your Mouth hand

also wdym "can't you"

why would you want to do that

[shy dove]

i will lose my 5x mult because i NEEDD to play MORE PAIRS

[covert obsidian]

yeaaaaa

[gusty agate]

This is messed up bro

[fierce plover]

rip

[elfin tapir]

why would you

take another one

someone should do a list of what would happen when certain cards are doubled up

like paredolia

[gusty agate]

I can tell you paredolia does absolutely nothing 😭

[crimson jolt]

Pareidolia makes them slightly more friendly-looking

[late holly]

I also have a full deck of glass red kings

And I just got a brainstorm

[timber acorn]

how tf do ppl get that many legendaries and why are you using blueprint on chicot

[late holly]

Oops

[timber acorn]

ik it can give some buffs but triboulet is way better

[late holly]

I had it on trib

[timber acorn]

how do u get that many legendaries tho

[late holly]

Luck

[timber acorn]

i get 1 every bunch of runs bro 💔

[jagged wing]

I have to make an extremely hard decision

Who do I sell

[fierce plover]

steel

or wee depending on how high wee is

[jagged wing]

56 chips on wee

And 2x mult on steel

Urr

Urghh

[fierce plover]

wee

[jagged wing]

Goodbye my wee wee Willy

[gentle hollow]

Nooooo the polychrome Mr bones!!

[fierce plover]

hehehe

[jagged wing]

Cuz

[gentle hollow]

Why is that a question

[slim junco]

Balatreate

[vivid tulip]

anyone else's legendary jokers not showing up?

[gentle hollow]

You usually want to stick to one hand

In a run

[fierce plover]

what mod is that omg

[jagged wing]

Ante 8 kinda not really

[gentle hollow]

How

[vivid tulip]

harlequin pack

[jagged wing]

What if you’re just randomly spitting hands

[timber acorn]

i just discovered that if you have your cards flipped and you change their color with a tarot card you can see them bc they flip wtf thats so cool

[gentle hollow]

You can pivot obviously

[jagged wing]

And all your point scoring is in jokers that don’t rely on hands

[gentle hollow]

But it has to be a really good pivot

Like flush house

Or flush five

[waxen trail]

How does obelisk work? Like grrr

[fierce plover]

poorly /j

[gentle hollow]

If I tell you it’ll be so enrage inducing

[waxen trail]

Just tell me

[vivid tulip]

idk if im missing the legendary jokers anywhere but i literally cant find em in the collection

[visual dome]

If I'm running ruined deck (no face) and already have run the bus, but see Negative pareidolia in the shop, do I ignore it or get it?

[gentle hollow]

Play high cards for all your other hands so it can be your highest played hand then just play your build hand

The thing is you have to play high cards a lot to overshadow endgame hands you play

[fierce plover]

love your pfp

[lone vault]

i can get why everyone hates pareidolia now

[gentle hollow]

Not the only hand option but it’s the most effective

[vivid tulip]

thx!!

[fierce plover]

did you make it?

[gentle hollow]

The plant+ pareidolia = all cards debuffed until one joker sold

[vivid tulip]

no i commissioned it

@quoipi on twitter

[fierce plover]

Nice!!!!
all my homies love suoorting artista

[lone vault]

that damn plant

[jagged wing]

Awww you could have given me this before I sold my Willy wee to director cut plant

[broken willow]

I will always hate the plant

[gentle hollow]

U sold wee?!! Why

Best joker

[jagged wing]

Bad times were upon me

[lone vault]

what are the jokers with the little names like chicot called

[gentle hollow]

Noo

[lone vault]

i’ve never gotten them

[rare oyster]

lo balatro sale caro

[gentle hollow]

Perkeo, triboulet, yorick, canio and chicot

[lone vault]

ok

[jagged wing]

Truly

[jagged wing]

They’re the legendary

They come from soul spectral cards

You see them in tarot and spectral

Lacks

[broken willow]

The only time where chicot would be usefull

[gentle hollow]

I can never find something other than canio

All the homies hate canio

[jagged wing]

Canio my canibro

Either he’s really useful while I’m deck fixing

Or I have to sell him

[lone vault]

i just read the wiki for yorick and he looks like shit

[gentle hollow]

Easy ten bucks

[gentle hollow]

Yorick is really good

[lone vault]

every 23 cards discarded???

[fierce plover]

id prefer canio to yorik tbh

[gentle hollow]

You can have up to five discards with all vouchers

[late holly]

FRICK

[gentle hollow]

5x5 25 cards you can discard

[lone vault]

triboulet peak

[near tusk]

yorrick is just passive scaling

[near tusk]

real

[gentle hollow]

I had two

[near tusk]

🤑

[jagged wing]

Yorick is such a goat

[fierce plover]

if only you had showman,
Mabey 3

[gentle hollow]

It was one of my favorite runs I’ll have you guys know

[late holly]

Chicot anyone?

[near tusk]

he’s good on ANY build

[lone vault]

chicot peak

[near tusk]

but not excellent on any

[jagged wing]

I think I might sell him for paint brush and trading card

[gentle hollow]

Reroll voucher better

[fierce plover]

i would

[gentle hollow]

Sell chicot if you have reroll

[jagged wing]

Chicots nice to have around but re roll voucher is necessary

[late holly]

Sell your discards

[jagged wing]

Yeah

[lone vault]

showman peak

[gentle hollow]

Chicot is just so outmatched by retcon

[near tusk]

only good in endless

[gentle hollow]

Black deck easy but I’m dreading the day I have to gold stake it

[brisk zinc]

localthunk feeling like oppenheimer upon seeing this

[gentle hollow]

[barren cape]

i like my jokers like i like my steaks

[frank sinew]

your computer would probably crash before but like theoretically

[gentle hollow]

I don’t think so

[frank sinew]

less of practically and i mean if balatro could run on a god computer with no restrictions

i mean if cryptid can do that shit

[brisk zinc]

dont check dm

[frank sinew]

you gotta be able to

[gentle hollow]

Any build can

[frank sinew]

You dm them and not me????

[brisk zinc]

[frank sinew]

[gentle hollow]

I watched the last game in semi final and that was it

[frank sinew]

the double idol one

[karmic venture]

I can't believe I got 2 legendary jokers in the same game.

[gentle hollow]

The stuff that was sent through dms was censored so mid

[opaque shard]

3*

[frank sinew]

Wow lol

[gentle hollow]

U wouldn’t want it

[frank sinew]

some of us just want to see a happy couple live their life

Wdym

[timber acorn]

[gentle hollow]

Damn

[karmic venture]

Which Joker do you recommend I use blue print?

[brisk zinc]

triboulet in abandoned goes hard

[brisk zinc]

trib unless yorich has a crazy mult

or if you somehow get 0 face cards then banana

[karmic venture]

Lol

[brisk zinc]

ez

[gentle hollow]

Man I’m about to play dead space remake for the first time but survival horror games other than re games scare me

[gentle hollow]

Bro

[dusky oasis]

Bro

[dusky oasis]

Can we talk about the political and economic state of the world

[sleek prairie]

Best cards to use to win black deck im stuck

[opaque shard]

Money

[tribal beacon]

Rocket and problem solved

We all should have a rocket card in our hands

[tribal beacon]

How do i do a Blackjack?

[gentle hollow]

Use constellation

Any build can fit constellation before ante 8

Just an all around good card

[dusky oasis]

All my homies hate black deck

[gentle hollow]

Combined with astronomer

You’re unstoppable

[gentle hollow]

I ain’t yo homie then

I love black deck

[gusty trench]

madness on ante one goes hard

also my first purple win

[gentle hollow]

W

[winter hollow]

I understand playing gold stake for fun now

[opaque shard]

Sometimes white stake is too easy

[gentle hollow]

I consistently win white stake runs but orange stake runs I can’t

I haven’t even beaten orange stake yet

I’m just putting it off

[karmic venture]

Lol

[opaque shard]

It ain't too hard

Once you get down to it, the most important thing is money

[gentle hollow]

I spend too much money

[devout thunder]

Sometimes white stake is too easy

[opaque shard]

If you can, focus early game on getting to the interest cap

[ebon ridge]

i love straights!!!!!

🔥

[tribal beacon]

I love flushes

[opaque shard]

I kinda only lose white stake for treating it like a sandbox

[ebon ridge]

i just won my second black stake run with basically the same build as the first one

a straights build

with runner

[opaque shard]

Runner my beloved

[winter hollow]

I remember skipping runner on a straight build cuz i had a foil devious joker

hurt me inside

[onyx hemlock]

guys

question

polychrome only triggers when played right?

[lone vault]

yes

[subtle quiver]

my shop bugged, i have baron and no showman and it still showed up again

[gentle hollow]

Should take a speculative oops?

[timber minnow]

well uhh...first shop soul

[blissful palm]

balatreo

[winter hollow]

not worth eternal 90% of the time

unless you are lucky card pilled

[timber minnow]

it was perkeo

[weak tangle]

would be cool if instead of being useless chicot could actively reverse the boss blind effect instead of just disabling it

like how having 2 of them works on some bosses like the needle now

like the tooth gives you a dollar for every card played

etc

[timber minnow]

lwk what chicot should be

[ionic osprey]

Gold stake flush 5

[obsidian sphinx]

first green steak win! honestly got carried by yorick lmao

[ionic osprey]

i can beat white, green steak with my eyes closed

[quiet junco]

What would y'all take

[ionic osprey]

abstact OP

[brisk zinc]

photochad

[obsidian sphinx]

well i cant ok

[brisk zinc]

invisible

[quiet junco]

To run the risk of two eternal riff raffs

[brisk zinc]

or burnt depending on your strat

[quiet junco]

Yeah right

[quiet junco]

I could do burnt + Shoot the moon

[tribal beacon]

.:|:;

[quiet junco]

Or just invis for two of em

[brisk zinc]

invis could copy the photograph but burnt is always nice

[obsidian sphinx]

i aint mad lmao im sticking it to the man fr fr

[timber minnow]

bruh who let this guy in my menu screen

[timber minnow]

its glorious

next soul card i get is chicot im calling it rn

[tawdry junco]

sup gang

[shadow heart]

Indeed

[tawdry junco]

got my first win on my phone earlier 😝

[shadow heart]

Solid

I recommend you start generating fear towards green and purple stale

Stake*

And orange aswell

[tawdry junco]

yeah that sounds scary

i havent tried red stake yet because i wanted to end on a win lol

[gentle hollow]

It’s valid to be scared for purple

[shadow heart]

Good to drop playing on a good win

Tomorrow give it a shot

Green stake is after red

[tawdry junco]

colours

[gentle hollow]

Purple stake is like plasma deck scaling

So yeah be scared

Doesn’t scale exactly like plasma but it’s pretty close

[shy dove]

no, not really

like, okay, sure

if theres no reason to, you wont pivot

that part is obvious

but obelisk is .2x per hand played

thats a reason

a pretty good one!

and there are plenty of builds that can perfectly support that

basically anything with chip jokers is safe

and chip jokers are pretty good

you got runner, square, stuntman

[gentle hollow]

I don’t even remember what I said that you’re responding to

[shy dove]

sometimes it can be something a bit different maybe you have like a hanging chad and an arrowhead

[shy dove]

i replied to it. it is right there.

[gentle hollow]

Idk why you are so pressed for some reason like obelisk wasn’t even brought up in that conversation and nobody plays obelisk anyways only if you really need it you’ll pick it up

Also you’ll want to stick to one hand because of telescope value?

So many more reasons

[signal ruin]

New emote?

[timber minnow]

can soul cards only come from packs or can jokers like seance and sixth sense make them too?

[gentle hollow]

Only packs

[timber minnow]

ok

[gentle hollow]

Fire emote

[signal ruin]

🔥

[manic mulch]

Help how can I stop being fucking addicted to balatro

[signal ruin]

Touching grass

[tribal ember]

It’s been done.

[gentle hollow]

Just don’t stop

Keep playing till your hand is numb

Maybe even more than that

[gentle hollow]

Why they have pants but they didn’t use the aces instead this is freaking making me mad man

Istg

[restive swallow]

how they have 2 jokers on the small blind

[short wedge]

and thats where i die

[restive swallow]

[tight fox]

[restive swallow]

[bleak sage]

https://youtube.com/shorts/9dvI-0owTlQ?si=VUEaxxs6Rsphotjg
BALALA MENTION??

[tight fox]

i'm still new, still trying to unlock everything first

right now i'm working on getting the diamond and club jokers, maybe unlocking more decks

[restive swallow]

Best way to do things imo, you learn how stuff work and what you enjoy using... i know many people who are grindin out gold stakes and they all have such different play styles it's interesting

the thrill of a single player game is that there's no rules

you play how you want do what you want ykno

[short wedge]

o7

[tight fox]

i wish there was like a sandbox mode where you can pick the jokers and cards and play around

[short wedge]

dying with 69 dollars is crazy

[tight fox]

i've been trying to get certain setups and i have horrible rng

[restive swallow]

it's cinema if you ask me

[short wedge]

dammit i still had a life left

o7 now fr tho

:D

[tight fox]

aww i'm not allowed to send gifs

nice run dude

[tribal ember]

The fuck do you mean the game doesn’t end after ante8…

[restive swallow]

theoretically it's endless

but the game hardstops at ante 39

[short wedge]

theres endless mode

its like minecraft

[tribal ember]

OHHHhhhh

Didn’t know

I’ve yet to beat this god forsaken game

[short wedge]

after beating ender dragon u can still go on forever

[tight fox]

i've never beaten ante 10

[restive swallow]

hey gettin to ante 10 is still impressive

[tribal ember]

The closest I’ve ever gotten is ante 7

[restive swallow]

iirc you gotta be ante 12 for an unlock

but past that you don't have to go further

gotta beat*

[short wedge]

highest i ever used to get was ante 12 big blind i think

[restive swallow]

unmodded i've been to 17

modded.. well that doesn't count imo

[tight fox]

i've not done the beat ante in under 20 rounds or whatever it's called

[short wedge]

its rounds

[tight fox]

that's not what i mean

[short wedge]

then idk

[tight fox]

there's a joker that unlocks if you beat the game in a certain number of rounds

i don't have it

[short wedge]

oh wait now ik what u mean

u just gotta skip a bunch

speedrun

[tight fox]

oh yeah that would work

[short wedge]

thats how it works

[shadow heart]

My wife throwback ❤️

[short wedge]

just got that from judgement

time for smol hand size lol

got the stunt from wraith

[elfin tapir]

had to look over my chemistry notes for this, and i can say that a litmus test cannot be failed per se, only be one or the either, in which case i am bad and you are good at obelisk

also hi again

[short wedge]

fun.

[brazen phoenix]

obelisk is actually a crazy skill check

this was the clutchest obelisk ever

it was 3.8

[tribal ember]

WHAT DO I PICK?

[brazen phoenix]

i am familiar with obelisk's game

[brazen phoenix]

do you have steel cards

[tribal ember]

1

[brazen phoenix]

will you pivot to more steel cards

[tribal ember]

I’ll try

[brazen phoenix]

yerp

i would pick steel joker and ramen but that's just me

[tribal ember]

Okii

[lone vault]

[short wedge]
